Podcast #19 - CLEAR Performance Coaching - QUICK START - COACH IN THE GAPS (Full Episode)

"I don't have time to coach." What if 60 seconds, done consistently, beats an hour? In Episode 19, Rick Timlick, Sam Bracken and Kent Vaughn take on the Quick Start card Coach in the Gaps (Card 45), the answer to the biggest objection leaders raise about coaching. The hour you think coaching requires was never the requirement. Short, consistent moments in the gaps you already have (the start of a shift, a walk across the floor, a hallway between meetings) build trust, keep you connected to the work, and slide under the threat response that a once-a-month one-on-one can trigger. In this episode: What "I don't have time to coach" is really telling you Kent's toothbrush story: why a little, done consistently, beats a lot done rarely What people assume when the leader stops showing up ("I guess they don't care") Sam's 60-second coaching moment, question by question How to correct something egregious in the moment with a coaching mindset (safety, values and ethics first) The three watch-outs on the back of Card 45 The "oh crap" leader vs. the "oh yeah" leader Sam's 60-second coaching moment: 1. What would winning look like for you today? 2. What obstacles are you facing? 3. What are you going to do about it? 4. How can I support you? This week's assignment: pick one anchor in your day and attach one question to it: "What's the trickiest part of your day right now?" Run it every day for two weeks. "A little done consistently is a lot better than a lot done very infrequently." - Kent Vaughn Watch the 1-minute clip:    • Podcast #19 - CLEAR Performance Coaching -...   Chapters: 0:00 Intro 0:53 Welcome & Card 45: "I don't have time" 1:44 Fast and shallow: correct in the moment 2:47 Kent's toothbrush story 4:49 "I guess they don't care" 5:54 What "I don't have time" really means 6:12 The seams of the day: welcome people in 7:17 "I see you" 7:36 The plant-floor walk that stopped 8:30 Trust grows, so don't give advice 10:02 What a 60-second coaching moment looks like 11:09 Advice to my younger self: be visible 14:17 Getting a pulse on the culture 15:00 Sliding under the threat response 17:32 When you see something egregious 20:52 Reaffirm the expectation before curiosity 22:51 The three watch-outs on Card 45 25:00 "How am I showing up for you?" 27:08 The worst version: the "oh crap" leader 31:19 What Card 45 doesn't ask for 32:31 Your two-week assignment About CLEAR Performance Coaching: We help ordinary leaders become great coaches who create extraordinary results. https://www.clearperformancecoaching.com Hosts: Rick Timlick, Sam Bracken & Kent Vaughn If this helped, like the video, subscribe for the next Quick Start card, and share it with a leader who says they don't have time to coach. #LeadershipCoaching #CoachingSkills #Leadership #ExecutiveCoaching #PerformanceCoaching #CLEARCoaching #CoachInTheGaps
